Hi, I have tried to use cups and samba together. Everything works great, however I am not able to configure and/or setup samba correctly, that the clients are able to install the driver. To test everything I used a dedicated system installed a fresh SuSE 8.0 and compiled samba (2.2.4) and cups (1.1.14). I only userd a differnet prefix for samba. Everything else is default.

Hello, I posted 2 weeks ago this problem and it is currently not working. First thanks a lot for all the hints and helps. In the attached file I have added (hopefully) all informations. To summarize: I want to setup a print server, which allows the user to download the necessary files for new printers. Installed are (on top of suse 7.1) samba 2.2.6_pre2 and cups 1.1.15_1. Installed the printers,

When I start winbindd (Samba v2.2.3a on Linux), I get the entries in log.winbindd shown below. What's the story on all those complaints about file "unexpected.tdb"? There is no general problem with Samba writing to that subdirectory: # ll /var/lock/samba/ total 288 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 696 Feb 12 22:01 brlock.tdb -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 231 Feb 13

Hello, I want to setup a new print server using cups and samba for our new institue. Everything is working well (printing from unix and windows), but the driver download for the windows clients won't work and I have no idea what's wrong. Currently i have installed cups-1.15 and samba 2.2.5 on top of suse 8.0 using the rpm-files from Lars Mueller(?)(ftp.suse.com/pub/people/lmuelle) and

Hi, we are using samba 2.0.7. on our HP file-server. For the NT users everything is ok, but we are not able to setup WIN95/98 computers to use the shares. All computers are within the same domain. Shares of NT-pc can be used and also shares from other linux boxe, but NOT from the HP. The global section is the same on the linux and HP machines. Any idea ? How can we check what is going wrong ?

Experts, We've just migrated from samba 2.2.8a to samba 3.0.20b in a very large corporate environment. Everything was really fine in our lab, but we began experiment serious load problems on the productive servers the morning after the procedure took place. I'll try (briefly) to describe the characteristics of the scenario: Resources: Old Environment: Hardware:

We've just gone live with a file & print server, and are having major problems with Samba. When used out of hours, with all PCs switched on and connected to the domain, everything works fine. However, during the day, we have problems where users can't print to any samba-hosted printer, Access database applications (where the database is held on the server) won't work, or work

On a recommendation from this list I checked the junklog file, the output from which I attached below. It looks as if it does not even see the linux machine as it indicates not seeing "explorer" which is the local netbios name. The Win XP machine does not even show in the log. Here is the last entry for nmbd.log: ***** [2003/11/21 06:24:58, 0] nmbd/nmbd.c:terminate(54) Got SIGTERM:

Hi all, I am running RedHat 7.3 and Samba 2.2.3a. I am using DHCP for my Linux box (hostname: NGPLinux, IP 132.189.26.62). I can see the list of shares I defined by using "smbclient -L NGPLinux -N". I can resolve the name using "nmblookup -U 127.0.0.1 NGPLinux". However, when I tried to use "nmblookup -B 132.189.26.255 NGPLinux" on the local machine, I got the

Hi, I have the following problem. We are using a linux box for the export of $HOME to NT-clients. All NT clients are patched not to use encryp. passwords. Now I tried to move everything to a HP9000(11.00). Samba (2.0.6) installation was easy. I've just moved the working smb.conf to the hp and it won't work. :( I tested everything from a linux box as described in diag.txt and it works.

Hi all, I've finally almost gotten my desired Samba+AD integration working: I've joined a domain, AD users can login, kerberos works (keytab integration, caching, etc.), etc. However, this is only true as long as I hack my /etc/hosts and /etc/samba/lmhosts files to trick Samba into always using my networks Windows 2000 Active Directory Server.
